ACT nero 1 metro LSZH U/FTP CAT6A cavo patch Slimline per data center snagless con connettori RJ45

The ACT Black 1 meter LSZH U/FTP CAT6A patch cable is a slimline data center Ethernet cord designed for high-speed network connections in confined spaces. With a 3.8 mm diameter, snagless RJ45 connectors and gold-plated contacts, the cable provides reliable conductivity while U/FTP shielding minimizes crosstalk and external interference. The LSZH (low smoke zero halogen) jacket reduces hazardous emissions in case of fire. Due to the thinner conductor (32 AWG), this slimline CAT6A cable has higher attenuation than standard 24 AWG patch cords, so it is intended for shorter permanent link lengths to meet ISO/IEC and TIA performance margins.

Advantages

The slim 3.8 mm diameter improves cable routing and cabinet airflow compared to regular CAT6A patch cords, aiding thermal management in dense installations. U/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ45 contacts support stable signal transmission and reduced interference. The LSZH jacket enhances safety in enclosed environments by producing less smoke and no halogen gases when exposed to fire. The cable’s snagless connector design protects the plug tab during installation and maintenance.

Suitable for

• Data center patching in high-density racks
• Short permanent link connections where reduced diameter is required
• Environments requiring LSZH cabling for fire-safety standards
• PoE deployments with limited bundle sizes (see recommendations)

How to use

Connect one RJ45 end to the switch, patch panel or network device and the other end to the server, workstation or patch point. Route the slimline cable through cabinet cable management or trays, taking advantage of the reduced diameter to maintain airflow. Avoid sharp bends near the connectors and follow standard installation practices for Ethernet cabling to preserve performance. Because the cable uses 32 AWG conductors, plan link lengths according to your channel budget and testing requirements.

Recommendations

For Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, limit bundled cables to a maximum of 24 conductors to control temperature rise. ACT recommends shorter permanent link lengths compared with 24 AWG patch cords to accommodate higher attenuation inherent to 32 AWG slimline cables. Follow ISO/IEC, TIA and ANSI TSB-184-A guidance for channel design and temperature limits.
